Opis:
The present article illustrates the modeling and optimization of a dual-slot waveguide for the application of a refractive index biosensor. The nanometer scale waveguide structure uses the silicon-on-insulator platform for the consideration of higher sensitivity and compactness of a resonator biosensor. The modal analysis is performed using the finite difference method based on full vector eigenmode calculation. The maximum field penetration in the lower index region is found for the quasi-TE mode. The sensitivity is maximized through the optimization of the waveguide dimension by relating effective refractive index with the dispersion of a waveguide. The biosensor showed the maximum calculated sensitivity of 461.327 nm/RIU and a limit-of-detection of 2.601 × 10–6 RIU (where RIU denotes refractive index unit).

Opis:
An analysis into the transient natural convective flow of a nanofluid in a vertical tube is made. The governing equations of momentum, heat transfer and nanoparticle volume fraction are deduced, and the influence of the thermophoresis parameter and Brownian motion is incorporated. By direct integration and variation of the parameter, analytical solutions are obtained for flow formation and heat/mass transfer at steady-state. On the other hand, due to the complexity of same problem at transient state, a numerical solution is used to solve the discretized equations of motion using the implicit finite difference technique. The influence of the thermophoresis parameter and Brownian motion is noted and well discussed. For accuracy check, a numerical comparison is made between the steady state and transient state solution at large time; this comparison gives an excellent agreement. The role of various principal parameters on velocity profile, temperature, concentration of nanoparticles, Sherwood and Nusselt numbers are presented graphically and well discussed. It is noted that the buoyancy ratio decreases the fluid velocity significantly.

Opis:
This paper presents a numerical analysis on turbulent flow and forced-convection characteristics of rectangular solar air heater tube fitted with staggered, transverse, V-shape, modern obstacles on the heated walls. Air, whose Prandtl number is 0.71, is the working fluid used, and the Reynolds number considered equal to 6×10 3. The governing flow equations are solved using a finite volume approach and the semi-implicit pressure linked equation (SIMPLE) algorithm. With regard to the flow characteristics, the quadratic upstream interpolation for convective kinetics differencing scheme (QUICK) was applied, and a second-order upwind scheme (SOU) was used for the pressure terms. The dynamic thermo-energy behavior of the V-shaped baffles with various flow attack angles, i.e., 50°, 60°, 70°, and 80° are simulated, analyzed, and compared with those of the conventional flat rectangular baffles with attack value of 90°. In all situations, the thermal transfer rate was found to be much larger than unity; its maximum value was around 3.143 for the flow attack angle of 90° and y = H/2.

Opis:
Compared to linear analogs, hyperbranched polymers (HBPs) have gotten much attention in the last decade because of their intrinsic globular topologies and distinctive features like low viscosity, high solubility, and a high degree of functionality. In this work, four types of hyperbranched polyester polymer HBPs have been synthesized using the A2+B3 polycondensation methodology. Firstly, the starting material B3 monomer (Pyrimidine-2,4,6-triol) has been synthesized using urea and malonic acid with the presence of sodium Na as the catalyst for the reaction. Secondly, four types of materials (tartaric acid TA, adipic acid AD, maleic acid MA, and phthalic anhydride PA) as A2 monomers were added to the starting material B3 monomer in an oil bath to prepare the four types of HBP. The chemical structure of HBPs was characterized by FTIR, and 1H-NMR. The molecular weight of the prepared HBPs was characterized by gel permeation chromatography GPC, and thermal properties were characterized by differential scanning calorimetry DSC and thermal gravimetric analysis TGA. FTIR results showed that there are new bands, such as C-O-C between A2 and B3 monomers, as indicated by 1H-NMR. In addition, GPC shows that the prepared polymers have a narrow molecular weight distribution with good thermal stability, as indicated by DSC and TGA.

In this paper, a study of the effect of winglet sweep angle and winglet tip chord of the aircraft wing on the aerodynamics performances and how to improve it are carried out, assuming Cant angle 60°, winglet height = 3.5 m, Toe angle = -5°, and Twist angle = +5°. Different sweep angles tested (-25°, -15°, 0°, +15°, +25°, +35°, and +45°) and winglet tip chord (0.25, 0.375, and 0.5 m). Four Angle of attack is presented (0°, 3°, 6°, and 9°). The aerodynamics properties of the wing were measured in terms of calculated lift to drag ratio to decide which wing has a high value of lift and lower drag. All models of a wing (eighty-four models) are drawn for 3D using the SOLIDWORKS program. Boeing 737-800 wing dimensions were used. All models of a wing were analyzed using ANSYS FLUENT. The results showed that sweep angle and winglet tip chord of the winglet by changing their configuration can improve aerodynamic performance for various attack angles. The maximum value of the lift to drag ratio was obtained with a sweep angle -15°, winglet tip chord 0.375m, and angle of attack 3°.

Opis:
High chromium (Cr) toxicity has turned into a serious environmental concern. Cr contaminated agronomic soils negatively affect the growth and yield of crops. Current research was conducted to enhance the phytoextraction potential of maize by using Burkholderia vietnamiensis and citric acid (CA). Plants were subjected to three concentrations of Cr (0.86, 350, and 500 ppm). A pot experiment was conducted under greenhouse conditions with completely randomized design (CRD). After 72 days of experiment, plants were harvested to analyze the morphological and biochemical attributes of soil, bacteria and plant. Results revealed that plant fresh, dry biomass, root, shoot length and chlorophyll contents significantly increased by 56%, 50%, 58%, 78% and 60%, respectively, at 500 ppm Cr concentration in combine treatment of B. vietnamiensis and CA. Maize plants treated with both B. vietnamiensis and CA significantly increased the bioaccumulation (BA) of Cr up to 50% and translocation factor (TF) by 31%. Furthermore, superoxide dismutase (SOD), proline and peroxidase dismutase (POD) activities in leaves were markedly increased by 30%, 42% and 15%, respectively, when treated with CA. Current study reveals that exogenous co-application of B. vietnamiensis + CA enhance plant growth by alleviating heavy metal stress and accelerate the phytoextraction of Cr. Taking into account the heavy metal tolerance and accumulation capacity, Zea mays is suitable for phytoremediation of contaminated soils in combination with B. vietnamiensis and CA.

Opis:
This article introduces a dual-functional low-profile compact multiple input multiple output (MIMO) antenna array for multi-band communication in 5G smartphones. The proposed eight elements of the antenna array form two different 4 ×4 MIMO systems. The first four elements are placed at the four mobile corners and operate in a single band of 3. 445– 3. 885 GHz for 5G n77 and n 78 applications. The other system, in which four antennas are positioned in the middle of the terminal board, supports two wide bands of 1 . 684– 2. 300 GHz and 4. 432 – 5. 638 for n 2, n 3, n 39, n 65, n 66, n 79 , and WLAN applications. The second iteration of a modified Peano-type fractal geometry served as the design foundation for the proposed antenna element. The system’s ground plane design is based on self-isolated and spatial diversity methods. The single-band MIMO system’s isolation is better than 23 dB. In the dual-band MIMO system that is based on self-isolation, isolation equals approximately 16 dB in the higher band and 10 dB in the lower band. To evaluate performance, radiation-related and total antenna efficiencies, scattering parameters and gains were investigated. Additionally, ECCs have been considered to evaluate MIMO performance. According to the results, such design constitutes a valuable option for MIMO applications in 5G smartphones.

Opis:
The increased power density, reduced switching losses with minimum electromagnetic interference (EMI), and high efficiency are essential requirements of power converters. To achieve these characteristics, soft power converters employing soft switching techniques are indispensable. In this paper, a ZCS/ZVS PWM AC/DC converter topology has been emphasized, which finds applications in high power systems such as automobile battery charging and renewable energy systems. This converter scheme maintains zero current and zero voltage switching conditions at turn on and turn off moments of semiconductor switches, respectively and soft operation of rectifier diodes that lead to negligible switching and diode reverse recovery losses. Moreover, it improves power quality and presents high input power factor, low total harmonic distortion of the input current (THDI ) and improved efficiency. The validity of theoretical analysis of the proposed converter has been carried out experimentally on a 10 kW laboratory prototype. Experimental results prove that the soft switching operation of the semiconductor switches and diodes is maintained at 98.6% rated load efficiency. In addition, the performance evaluation has been performed by comparative analysis of the proposed converter with some prior art high power AC/DC converters. Efficiencies of the proposed and prior art high power topologies have been determined for different load conditions. The highest efficiency, power factor and lower THDI of the proposed converter topology complies with international standards.

Opis:
One of the orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) system disadvantages is its sensitivity to frequency offset and phase noise, which lead to losing the orthogonality between the subcarriers and thereby degrade the system performance. In this paper a joint scheme for frequency offset and pilot-based channel estimation is introduced in which the frequency offset is first estimated using an autocorrelation method, and then is fined further by applying an iterative phase correction by means of pilot-based Wiener filtering method. In order to verify the capability of the estimation algorithm, the scheme has been implemented and tested using a real measurement system in a multipath indoor environment. The results show the algorithm capability of compensating for the frequency offset with different transmission and channel conditions.

Purpose: This work aimed at evaluating the properties of the ethyl silicate-based coating that can be applied on low carbon steel. Design/methodology/approach: Two mixture ratio types (2:1, and 3:2) of resin and hardener respectively were used to prepared two specimen models (A and B). Findings: It found that some mechanical properties (tensile, hardness, and impact strength) of ethyl silicate resin were evaluated according to standard criteria. Research limitations/implications: The effect of heat treatments at various temperatures (100, 150, and 200°C) and holding at different times (10, 20 & 30) min on hardness was investigated. Practical implications: Moreover, an open circuit potential corrosion test with a solution of 3.5% Sodium Chloride at room temperature and 60°C was used to determine the corrosion resistance of low carbon steel specimens coated with the two mixture types. Originality/value: The effects of mixture ratios (for resin and hardener) and heat treatment conditions on properties of ethyl silicate-based coating were studied. From obtained results, acceptable values of tensile, hardness, and toughness were recorded. Increasing heat treatment temperature and holding time leads to enhance hardness for both model types. An open circuit potential (OCP) tests show that there is an enhancement of protective properties of ethyl silicate coatings with mixture type B in comparison with type A was achieved. Generally, the results indicate that specimen model B has higher properties as compared with specimen model A.

Purpose: In building constructions, due to the decrease of local raw materials and for sustainability purpose, beside the need of light pieces to be used in roofing and false ceiling; an alkali-activated mortar is the new development where pozzolanic material is used instead of cement and activated by an alkaline solution. Therefore, in this research, alkali-activated mortar containing unexpanded clay as a fine aggregate with a dry density of 1652 kg/m3, compressive strength of 3.2 MPa, and thermal conductivity of 0.4 (W/m.K) was produced ,also boards were performed in a dimension of 305×152×12 mm as to use them in false ceiling, and reinforced with 0.25 and 0.5% steel fibre to improve their toughness by 370.8% and 1146.1% compared with reference boards, which made them good choice to used them in roofing and secondary ceiling. Design/methodology/approach: For preparation of alkali-activated mortar, low calcium fly ash (FA) was used as a source binder material. In addition, super-plasticizer and unexpanded clay as a fine aggregate (produce from the crushed artificial aggregate) in the ratio of 1:2.75 fly ash/fine aggregate. The paste was prepared by mixing fly ash with an alkali silicate solution, in a solid-to-liquid ratio of 0.4. Alkali silicate activator was prepared by mixing the NaOH and Na2SiO3 solutions at the mass ratios of 2.5. The concentrations of the NaOH was the same molarity of (14M).To improve the mechanical properties of the reference mortar mixture ,steel fibre with 0.25 and 0.5% content were added to the mix .The specimens were tested for water absorption, dry density, compressive strength, flexural strengths, flexural toughness, and thermal conductivity, in addition to the Scanning Electron Microscope test (SEM) for all mortar mixes. Alkali-activated mortar boards with (305×152×12 mm) were prepared and tested for flexural strength and toughness. Findings: The results indicated that the modulus of rupture for mortar boards reinforced with 0.25 and 0.5% steel fibre exhibits an increase of (3.68-12.10)%. In comparison, the toughness is increased by about 370.8% and 1146.1%, respectively, as compared with the reference mortar (without fibre) which made them resistance to accident, in addition to use them in roofing due to their thermal insulation. Research limitations/implications: Further research is needed to make a similar board using another sustainable material. We can examine the thermal insulation that we can get from these board, especially in the building in Iraq which the weather faces high temperatures. Practical implications: There is a by-product that we could get from the electricity station in Iraq. We must study how we get rid of it. Originality/value: This paper investigate how to produce a new light board using artificial aggregate made from unexpanded clay, which has many benefits in building insulation roofing.

Opis:
Purpose: In this paper, the bending strength and buckling stability of (AA 7075-T6) aluminium plate weakened by many transverse cracks, which located at different positions, subjected to concentrated loads applied at the ends were analysed. Design/methodology/approach: Numerical modelling and calculation by the finite element method (ANSYS Package), for the critical load of bending and compression panel were estimated. Findings: It found that the variation of the critical stress in bending and buckling is proportional to the crack conditions (no. of crack and location). In general, the critical load in bending and buckling decreases with increasing the crack number in structure. Research limitations/implications: For both bending and buckling, two transverse cracks on one face of plate is more stable than two transverse cracks on opposite faces. Practical implications: In addition, many experimental tests were carried out by using an INSTRON test machine to obtain the buckling critical loads, where the experimental results were compared with the ones of the finite element method. Furthermore, bending strength was calculated theoretically for the cracked panel. Originality/value: Comparison between the experimental and numerical (FE based model) data and between the theoretical and nu-merical (FE based model) data for buckling and bending strength respectively indicate the precise and the simplicity of the developed models to determine the critical loads in such cases.

Opis:
Crosstalk propagation through silicon substrate is a serious limiting factor on the performance of the RF devices and circuits. In this work, substrate crosstalk into high resistivity silicon substrate is experimentally analyzed and the impact on the RF behavior of silicon-on-insulator (SOI) MOS transistors is discussed. The injection of a 10 V peak-to-peak single tone noise signal at a frequency of 3 MHz ( fnoise) generates two sideband tones of ?56 dBm separated by fnoise from the RF output signal of a partially depleted SOI MOSFET at 1 GHz and 4.1 dBm. The efficiency of the introduction of a trap-rich polysilicon layer located underneath the buried oxide (BOX) of the high resistivity (HR) SOI wafer in the reduction of the sideband noise tones is demonstrated. An equivalent circuit to model and analyze the generation of these sideband noise tones is proposed.

Opis:
Combustion synthesis is capable of producing many types of refractory and ceramic materials, as well as metals, with a relatively lower cost and shorter time frame than other solid state synthetic techniques. TiO2 with Mg as reductant were dry mixed and hand compacted into a 60 mm diameter mold and then combusted under an Ar atmosphere. Depending on the reaction parameters (Mg concentration 2 ≤ α ≤ 4), the thermocouples registered temperatures between 1160°C and 1710°C . 3 mol of Mg gave the optimum results with combustion temperature (Tc) and combustion velocity (Uc) values of 1372°C and 0.26 cm/s respectively. Furthermore, this ratio also had the lowest oxygen concentration in this study (0.8 wt%). After combustion, DC plasma treatment was carried out to spheroidize the Ti powder for use in 3D printing. The characterization of the final product was performed using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectroscopy, and N/O analysis.

Using microorganisms in eliminating or reducing the impacts of harmful remnants is very ancient manner. The current study was conducted to explore the potential of utilizing some fungi species that isolated from the main sewage treatment plant in Al-Muamirah area, Babylon-Iraq, in reducing some pollutants. Six fungi taxa Aspergillus flavus, A. niger, A. terrues, Candida albicans, C. krusei, and Penicillium digitatum were identified before any treatment process, whereas only four fungi species A. flavus 20%, A. niger 20%, A. terrues 10%, and P. digitatum 18% were recognized after completing the physical and chemical treatment stages. Only three taxa A. niger, A. terrues, and P. digitatum were employed to reveal their capability in treating the sewage water, which represent the biological treatment stage as the final step of the treatment processes. The results showed a considerable capability of these fungi species in decreasing many variables values such as pH, total soluble solids (TSS), electrical conductivity (EC), salinity, total alkalinity, chlorides, nitrite, and phosphate. Where, slightly low reduction was detected in TSS value in all experiments (1.1–5.9%), similarly, both EC and salinity which were decreased with low ratios (6.6%, 3.9%, respectively). Taxon A. terrues exhibited high ability in reducing the total alkalinity and chloride ions in the treated water (30.9%, 43%, respectively) in comparison with the other two fungi species. Furthermore, all three fungi species were posed high capability in decreasing nutrients, where both nitrite and phosphate ions were highly reduced (87–97% and 22.8–32.1%, respectively). Based on these findings, we suggest using other microorganisms and exploring their capacity in removing the pollutants, and revealing the ability of the above fungi taxa in removing other pollutants.

Introduction The study aimed at measuring exhaled breath malondialdehyde (EBC-MDA) in workers exposed to dust containing silica and at its comparison with the non-exposed control group. Material and methods The cross sectional, case-control study (N = 50) was performed in a tile and ceramics production factory in Yazd, Iran. EBC-MDA was quantified in exhaled breath of the participants by a lab made breath sampler. Exposure intensity was measured according to the NIOSH 0600 method in selected homogeneous exposure groups. Additionally, spirometry test was conducted to investigate a correlation between EBC-MDA and spirometric findings in the exposed workers. Results There was no difference in the observed exposure intensities of silica containing dust in different units. However, “coating preparation” was the unit with the highest concentration of dust. Although, the level of EBC-MDA in the cases was slightly higher than in the controls, the difference was not statistically significant (U = 252, p = 0.464). A significant and positive correlation was found between dust exposure intensity in working units and the measured EBC-MDA of workers (r = 0.467, N = 25, p = 0.027). There were also no statistically significant differences among job categories in the exposed group for the values of FEV1% (F(3, 44) = 0.656, p = 0.584), FVC% (F(3, 44) = 1.417, p = 0.172), and FEV1/FVC% (F(3, 44) = 1.929, p = 0.139). Conclusions The results showed a significant correlation between respirable dust exposure intensity and the level of EBC-MDA of the exposed subjects. However, our results did not show a significant correlation between lung function decreases and EBC-MDA.

Opis:
Although TiNb2O7 is regarded as a material with high application potential in lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) and solid-oxide fuel cells (SOFCs), it has been difficult to find suitable cost-effective conditions for synthesizing it on a commercial scale. In this study, TiNb2O7 compounds were synthesized by a solid state synthesis process. For stoichiometrically precise synthesis of the TiNb2O7 phase, the starting materials, TiO2 and Nb2O5 were taken in a 1:1 molar ratio. Activation energy and reaction kinetics of the system were investigated at various synthesis temperatures (800,1000,1200, and 1400°C) and for various holding durations (1,5,10, and 20 h). Furthermore, change in the product morphology and particle size distribution were also evaluated as a function of synthesis temperature and duration. Additionally, quantitative phase analysis was conducted using the Rietveld refinement method. It was found that increases in the synthesis temperature and holding time lead to increase in the mean particle size from 1 to 4.5 μm. The reaction rate constant for the synthesis reaction was also calculated.
